Nigerian singer Wande Coal has fired back at fellow Afrobeats star Davido after the DMW boss claimed that he recently asked for his phone number, describing Davido as a “talentless fool” and accusing him of “capping” on national television.
The exchange began after Davido mentioned Wande Coal during an interview, claiming that Wande had contacted him about two weeks earlier to request his phone number.
Davido said Wande had been seeking his attention and suggested that the singer was “acting like a baby”. He also addressed earlier comments about Wande’s song, explaining that he had declined to record a remix but believed the collaboration could have been good.
Reflecting on their relationship, Davido said he had known Wande for years and had looked up to him while growing up. However, he also made a controversial remark about Wande, suggesting that the singer was not himself mentally.
Wande Coal subsequently took to X to dispute Davido’s account, questioning how he could have asked for his number two weeks earlier. He challenged Davido to release their complete conversation to back up the claim.
Wande wrote: “I wonder why you no post the full chat, asked for your number 2 weeks ago, how??? WHO YOU EPP? I passed the baton to the next generation of talented artists not you talentless fool, keep capping on National TV.”
Davido later responded, referring to Wande as a “bitch” and rejecting the accusation that he lacks talent. He also recalled Wande’s previous interest in collaborating on a remix and shared a video of the pair during a studio session involving the unreleased collaboration.
Davido wrote: “No talent but ur bitch ass was about to do a split😂😂.”
The exchange has sparked reactions among fans as the two established Afrobeats stars trade words over the disputed phone number claim and their previously discussed musical collaboration.
